Some time ago, about a year or two, Black metal saw a huge uprising in one particular area of it, namely the Orthodox area. It seems to have died down now, but it was a pretty vitriolic surge of (Orthodox) Satanism-fuelled, hatred-injected and adrenaline-stimulated Black metal. Firmly rooted in old Mayhem and Darkthrone with often a good production. Well, there are always those that show up late to class, and Merrimack is one of those.
